Sirens and explosions heard in Golan Heights, possibly from battles in Syria

Sirens blared across several towns in the Golan region early Saturday morning - assumed by Israeli officials to be a result of battles in Syria near the Israeli border. The IDF immediately began investigations to determine if any rockets fell in Israeli territory.

Ynet readers reported hearing several explosions. The Golan Regional Council reported that after a short while they were told it was safe to return to normal activities. (Ahiya Raved and Yoav Zitun)
